One of the best flavored stouts on the market. Has very creamy head (but less than Guinness) and smooth flavor with good but not overbearing chocolate flavor. Can also taste a hint of coffee at times.

One of my favorite beers, period. Frothy head, leaves good lace. Darker than midnight in a cave. Like the name might imply chocolate overtones and undertones and any other tone you might think of. The flavor is not overpowering and it certainly does have a distint stout beer taste to it. Only complaint, not every bottle is rockin’, cans are more often of good quality and it is best on tap. make it better by being served this brew by scantily clad women and rejoice at how wonderful life is.

Sort øl med tyk brunt skum, der dannes på Guinness facon. Dufen er meget dejlig af chokoladekarameller. Duften er meget kraftig, også efter 1 time. Smagen er let brændt, rund og cremet, tør, bitter. Samg af mørk chokolade, og grape eftersmag.

Nice dark poor with mocha head. Very good sweet stout. Malty taste with chocolate overtones.

Poured from the bottle to an opaque jet-black with thick tan head that lingered for most of the glass, then left good lacing on the glass. Excellent aroma of walking into a candy shop with the sweet smell of fresh chocolate and caramel in the air. Taste was more muted than the aroma, but still very much sweet chocolate. Finish was a little watery, but overall, a stout beer well worth drinking.

Bottle, pours a tight creamy medium tan head that is reminicent of the moon surface. I worry that all that is on the store shelves is the remainder on the planet. Smooth and bitter sweet with a quick well rounded ending. Hops well hidden but present. A groovy brew, make more!

Cha-Ching boys and girls. This Dark brown beer with a medium brown head is one of the best chocolate beers I have ever had. The only problem I have seen is the consistancy. I’ve had 2 in one night (one in a can and one in a bottle) with differing levels of quality. I assume that more people buy cans so it was fresher, but I could be wrong. All in all a wonderful warmer on a cold winter night.

On tap at Barley’s Brewhouse-sweet chocolate with a smooth, silky mouthfeel. Better on tap then bottled-I haven’t seen any Nitro cans yet-not in my neck of the woods anyway. Very tasty desert beer.
